When employees adopt MCP faster than IT can govern it

IT teams are discovering that employees are building their own MCP-enabled agents before formal governance exists. Here's what that means for your organization. 🔗 Watch the full webinar: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mIk1pDcr30I In this clip, Marcus Dubreuil from J.W. Pepper explains what happened when technical staff outside IT started creating useful AI agents using MCP servers. These weren't rogue projects. They were people solving real problems with new tools that had MCP integrations available. The challenge wasn't stopping innovation. It was bringing the same governance standards to MCP that already existed for API integrations. When teams treat MCP like just another integration protocol requiring oversight, they can enable safe experimentation without creating security gaps or technical debt. You'll hear why early MCP adoption felt terrifying from an IT leadership perspective, and why treating IT as a service layer for AI tools makes more sense than trying to control every implementation. The goal isn't to block progress. It's to provide the structure that makes scaling possible. If your organization is seeing MCP tools spread across departments, this shows why governance frameworks matter and how to approach them without slowing teams down. #MCPGovernance #TrayAI #AgentGateway #AIGovernance #EnterpriseAI #ITLeadership #ModelContextProtocol #ShadowAI #AIAdoption #SystemsArchitecture --------------------------------- Learn more about Tray: https://tray.ai/ Follow Tray on Twitter: https://x.com/tray Follow Tray on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/tray-ai/
